Casey Pace Quotations

We're hoping, of course, it's going to be fairly minimal since a lot of that fruit had already been picked.

There is a lot of disappointment that we were unsuccessful with the eradication program... as a state.

Typically around this time of year we're already starting to harvest, but because of the hurricane impact last year and the stress on the trees, our crop is going to be later, about a month later, so Wilma would not be good news for us.

We have not really begun harvesting, so much of the crop is still on the trees, which obviously is a concern for growers.

The rest of the state fared very well.

The growers feel very adamant that the eradication program needs to continue. Without this money, there was a lot of concern about the long-term success of the program.

The increase in land values is having an impact on the industry.
